Coronary Disease Clinical Trial
Official title:
Genetic Susceptibility to Common Lipid Disorders in Mexico
Familial combined hyperlipidemia (FCHL) is an inherited disorder characterized by elevated levels of cholesterol and triglycerides; it often occurs in Mexican individuals with coronary heart disease (CHD). The purpose of this study is to identify the specific genes that predispose Mexican individuals to FCHL.
CHD is the leading cause of death in Mexico. Dyslipidemia that is characterized by high
total cholesterol, high triglycerides, and low "good" high-density lipoprotein (HDL)
cholesterol is a risk factor for developing CHD. Research has shown that the Mexican
population has an increased tendency towards dyslipidemia, but it is not known what genetic
factors contribute to this predisposition. This study will examine the genetic basis of
FCHL, which is an inherited form of dyslipidemia characterized by elevated levels of total
cholesterol and triglycerides. FCHL is a major contributing factor in CHD; 20% of
individuals with CHD under the age of 60 have FCHL. The purpose of this study is to identify
and characterize the specific DNA sequence variations that predispose Mexican individuals to
FCHL. Results of this study may aid in the development of appropriate prevention and
screening techniques.
This study will enroll individuals in Mexico who have FCHL. Participants will attend one
study visit for blood collection and DNA sampling. Family members of participants will be
contacted and asked to provide a DNA sample also. A select group of participants will return
for a second study visit for RNA sampling. Study researchers will analyze participants' DNA
and RNA samples, as well as two FCHL genes identified in previous research studies.
